How did we get our start? Our story begins in late 19th-century Massachusetts, where Mary Ida Young recognized the need for a more humane, natural approach to treating lameness in horses. She formulated a tincture of herbs and essential oils to increase blood flow and accelerate healing.

Is Mary Ida's family still involved? Indeed! WF Young, makers of the renowned Absorbine brand, remains a 5th generation family-owned and operated business located in Massachusetts, USA.

Why do we love what we do? At WF Young, we are passionate about continuing the legacy of innovation to help animals live their best lives. Your stories are what warm our hearts. Driven by purpose, guided by science, we are not just advancing animal wellness standards - we are reinventing them, so you can enjoy more quality time with the animals and pets you cherish.

Get The Most Out Of UltraShield Green Better Application, Better Protection · Apply to a clean horse so the spray sticks directly to the hair, not to mud or dust. · Shake well before you start applying. · Apply enough product to be effective, which is about 45 sprays (or 2 ounces of product) per application. The coat should feel damp but not soaked. · Cover the entire hair shaft by brushing the hair up before spraying, then brush down for even coverage.

A Legacy More Than 125 Years in the Making Every day at Absorbine is a celebration of a legacy that began with a truly extraordinary couple: Mary Ida and Wilbur F. Young. A labor of love, they set out to find an alternative to the common 19th-century practice of "blistering" lame horses. Knowing there had to be a better, more humane way, Mary Ida developed a special blend of herbs into an essential oils tincture, and Wilbur rounded out the formula with a few more natural ingredients using knowledge he gained working part time for a pharmacist. The result of their teamwork is Absorbine Veterinary Liniment, which has been loved by horse owners for over 130 years.

Through the years we have stayed true to our mission to provide innovative, high-quality animal care products. Our products are used by horse owners around the world, and we work hard every day to be The Horse World's Most Trusted Name.
